box.
2 Click the OCR tab.
3 Click Font Matching... to open the Font Matching dialog box.
All the fonts on your computer system will be listed on the left.
4 Select fonts that you believe to be in your document and add
them to the list on the right.
For best results, please limit the selected fonts to the ones that
are in your document.
5 Click OK when you are done.
After performing OCR, recognized text appears in the text view where
you can proofread the results.
OmniPage Pro marks suspected errors in green and inserts a red "reject"
character for any character it cannot recognize. To turn off these color
markers, choose Show Markers in the View menu so that it is deselected.
